Apple's massive profits in perspective

Apple had the highest annual profit of any company in history
for its fiscal year, which ended September 30.
Can anybody else catch up?

Probably not anytime soon. This chart from Statista shows how far ahead Apple
is compared with the rest of the tech industry. Apple's quarterly
profit was more than the combined profits of Microsoft and
Alphabet (Google). No other tech company came close.

Note that Yahoo's profit in Q3 2014 was a one-time gain from the
sale of Alibaba shares.
